Human-Centred Computing Strategy for the Design of a New System

Learning outcome 1: Understand and demonstrate the ability to apply principles from human-computer interaction to interactive systems design.

Learning outcome 2: Evaluate interactive systems quantitatively and qualitatively for their ease of use by target customer groups.

Learning outcome 3: Understand and demonstrate the ability to manage stakeholder-developer interaction during the requirements elicitation stage.

Learning outcome 4: Understand and demonstrate the ability to apply the principles of user interface design and information architecture to trans-mediated and multi modal interactive systems.

Learning outcome 5: Understand the dynamics of a multidisciplinary development team delivering a software system that meets the requirements of a target customer group.

Element 1 - Development of a human-centred strategy for the design and development of a new system

Task details You will be responsible to write a portfolio of tasks comprising a human-centred strategy for the design and development of a new version of the Bots and Us robots. Use the knowledge already obtained from completing the first assignment in order to help you prepare your strategy.
This strategy portfolio should include the following elements:

• Identification of key users and stakeholders (1 paragraph per stakeholder)
• Persona creation for each user profile:customer andemployee (1 paragraph per persona)
• Identify one key task for each of the following system functions:help me find a productand the asking if and when a product is in stock, if not available on the shopfloor. Produce a Work Domain Analysis for thesetasks (one WDA per table - total of 2 tables)
• Interaction Design and Information Visualisation Recommendations developed from the WDAs. Illustrate with sketch of user interfaces and control behaviours.
• How would you manage the integration of User-Centred Design and Agile Development activities in the for the interface design of robot. (2 paragraphs + lifecycle PERT chart)
• If you were to design this system in India, how would you address cultural differences in your approach to the process and product of interaction design of the Bots and Us robots system. Note cultural differences as per Hofstede's study below. Note the contrast in terms of individualism and power distance. (2 paragraphs: one to discuss individualism and one to discuss power distance)
